Question
Do you happen to know of any cases of CAM being proven more effective than a traditional therapy, but not being integrated into standard care? Or, perhaps cases in which CAM was proven to do something that traditional medicine couldn't, without the CAM being integrated into traditional medicine.  

Answer
Dear Jordan,
I do not adhere to any traditional medicine, but I would caution anyone utilizing a combination, in that, properties of herbal remedies could be enhanced or intensify allopathic prescriptions.  I, personally, do not feel comfortable in CAM treatments, as there is the possiblity of getting the "worst of both worlds."  I trust Adonai for healing and use basic vitamins, minerals, and herbs for maintenance.  
Kind Regards,
Kindred
